XML Predicates
+ The expressions described in this section check properties
+ of xml values.

IS DOCUMENT
+
between documents and content fragments.
+
+
+
XMLEXISTS
+
+
+
+
+
+XMLEXISTS(text PASSING BY REF xml BY REF)
+
+
+ The function xmlexists returns true if the
+ XPath expression in the first argument returns any nodes, and
+ false otherwise. (If either argument is null, the result is
+ null.)
+
+
+ Example:
+
+SELECT xmlexists('//town[text() = ''Toronto'']' PASSING BY REF 'TorontoOttawa');
+
+ xmlexists
+------------
+ t
+(1 row)
+]]>
+
+
+ The BY REF clauses have no effect in
+ PostgreSQL, but are allowed for SQL conformance and compatibility
+ with other implementations. Per SQL standard, the
+ first BY REF is required, the second is
+ optional. Also note that the SQL standard specifies
+ the xmlexists construct to take an XQuery
+ expression as first argument, but PostgreSQL currently only
+ supports XPath, which is a subset of XQuery.
